According to the statement, the 14-day working days deadline would elapse on January 8, 2025.
The ultimatum was contained in a statement signed by Joe Ajaero and Emmanuel Ugboaja, the President and General Secretary, after its NEC meeting In Owerri, Imo state on Thursday.
According to the statement, the 14-day working days deadline would elapse on January 8, 2025.
The police are to vacate the Secretariat premises, return all confiscated properties to the Congress, and commit to refraining from further interference in trade union activities.
The NLC said the NEC meeting in Owerri was partly to Roll out its Southeast region’s Compressed Natural (CNG) Bus Services and also deliberate on critical issues impacting Nigerian workers and the general populace.
The NLC said it also examined the worsening socio-economic conditions brought about by government policies, which have plunged Nigerians into unprecedented hardship and deepened the crisis of survival across the country.

The NLC also expressed grave concern over the persistent cash scarcity currently plaguing business activities in the country, describing it as an unfortunate and exploitative burden on the already struggling populace.
The Union said Nigerians are being forced to forfeit 5% of their funds each time they access cash, an unacceptable situation that exacerbates the economic woes faced by millions.
